An Argentinian epic about dance "This is the story of a man who took part in a dance contest." It is thus that Argentine journalist and author Leila Guerriero opens her book. It tells the most difficult of all epic stories: that of the common man. This is an electrifying work that spans the genres of journalism and fiction. It tells a moving and strangely intimate story about malambo, a traditional dance of the Argentine gauchos, and about the Malambo Festival of Laborde in the southeast of the Argentinian province of Cordoba. It is also about Rodolfo Gonzalez Alcantara, who won the dance competition in 2012. Leila Guerriero is a gifted chronicler. Her internationally acclaimed work A Simple Story was published in Spanish in 2013 and in English in 2017, and now appears in German for the first time, in a translation by Angelica Ammar. First German translation of the impressive chronicle "A foray through life, suffering, sacrifice, silent despair, the dread of loss, solidarity, and glory." (El Pais) "[a] level of excellence: [...] rigorous work, exhaustive research" (Mario Vargas Llosa)

Die Printmedien besetzen auch im Zeitalter elektronischer Kommunikation eine fuhrende Rolle in der oeffentlichen Meinungsbildung. Eine freie Presse ist notwendig zur Aufdeckung gesellschaftlicher Missstande und gehoert zu den Grundpfeilern einer demokratischen Gesellschaft. Auffallend ist allerdings auch der immer rucksichtslosere Umgang mit den Persoenlichkeitsrechten des Einzelnen. Vor dem Hintergrund der wachsenden Macht der Medien stellt sich die Frage, ob das vorhandene System der Presseselbstkontrolle noch zeitgemass ist. Auf der Basis aktueller Falle wird eine kritische UEberprufung der Einhaltung ethischer und presserechtlicher Regeln vorgenommen und es werden neue Wege, aber auch Verbesserungsvorschlage und Loesungsmoeglichkeiten im Rahmen der Presseselbstkontrolle aufgezeigt.

This book is an in-depth reportage on some of the most defining issues of our time, namely the global refugee crisis, the conflicts displacing these masses of humanity, and the causes behind them. It is also an ode to the vanishing art of the long-form feature or reportage, which is disappearing because many media organisations can no longer afford it, or are unwilling to pay for this kind of time-consuming, on-the-ground journalism.It is essential to keep alive old-school reportage from the field because it provides a human face to the issues challenging our world. It helps pierce the bubble of propaganda with a needle of truth and, beyond the political and human, it is a beautiful art form in its own right.This book showcases a keen eye for the human story and a profound commitment to the human family. By telling the stories detailed here, it helps put a human face on the suffering that is too often viewed statistically and quantitatively.

In elegant and lyrical prose, Patti Smith honors the vibrant spirit and person that was Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989). In linked pieces she tells the story of a man on a journey to see the Southern Cross, who is reflecting on his life and fighting the illness that is consuming him. Metaphoric and dreamy, this tale of transformation arises from Smith's knowledge of Mapplethorpe as a young man and as a mature artist; his close relationship with his patron and friend, Sam Wagstaff; and his years surviving AIDS and his ascent into death. Rich in details, it is filled with references to Mapplethorpe's photographs and shows the man beneath the persona. The Coral Sea is Smith's beautiful recasting of her grief to recapture Mapplethorpe's life in the past and his future in his art. Set against photographs by Mapplethorpe, the work reads as a hymn, a prayer, a fable wishing him Godspeed on his latest journey.
